Waves On Waves

Founded by Kevin Thornton (vocals, guitar, piano, synthesizer), Enoch Porch (drums, vocals, synthesizer, guitar, piano), and Luke Aaron Jones (bass, vocals, piano), Waves on Waves started out in Indiana under the name Thornton before the group relocated to Nashville. After the group's 2004 release, Had a Sword, earned the attention of critics and fans, Thornton (the group) won an award at the Nashville Scene Awards for Best Experimental Rock. While on tour to promote the album in 2004 and 2005, the group narrowly escaped the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and abruptly canceled the rest of its dates. After a months-long hiatus (Kevin Thornton relocated to South America, Porch toured as a bassist with Lovedrug, and Jones got married), the trio reconvened, changed its name to Waves on Waves, and entered the recording studio. The self-titled Waves on Waves was released in June 2008 on VTP Music.
